I'm pretty sure that this is Chromodoris tinctoria, although it's close enough to the (thought to be extinct) Chromodoris petechialis that it would be a good idea to send your photo to a Nudibranch expert.

Could be an exciting find!

Possibly Jorunna funebris, although the black spines are usually concentrated into spots in that species. These Jorunna feed on blue sponge.

There are 3 species of Bullia in South Africa. They all use their foot like a sail to surf up and down the beach with the tide.
